You can identify many of these statements by looking for words such as “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “project,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “continue” or similar words or the negative thereof. Known material factors that could cause our actual results to differ from those in these forward-looking statements are described below, in Part I, Item 1A (“Risk Factors”) and Part II, Item 7 (“Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”) of this report. All forward-looking statements included in this report are based on information available to us on the date of this report. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the foregoing cautionary statements. Item 1. Business General As used in this document, the terms “Partnership”, “SUN”, “we”, “us”, or “our” should be understood to refer to Sunoco LP, known prior to October 27, 2014 as Susser Petroleum Partners LP, and our consolidated subsidiaries, including Sunoco, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Sunoco LLC”), on a 100% consolidated basis, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise or unless Sunoco LLC is referenced separately. Although we only have a 31.58% membership interest in Sunoco LLC, because we have a controlling interest as a result of our 50.1% voting interest in Sunoco LLC, it is considered a consolidated subsidiary for financial statement reporting purposes. Overview We are a growth-oriented Delaware master limited partnership. We are managed by our general partner, Sunoco GP LLC (our “General Partner”), which is owned by Energy Transfer Equity, L.P., another publicly traded master limited partnership (“ETE”). The following simplified diagram depicts our organizational structure as of December 31, 2015. (1) Effective January 1, 2016, certain of our operating subsidiaries exchanged their Class A units for Class C units. 1 We are engaged in retail sale of motor fuels and merchandise through our company-operated convenience stores and retail fuel sites, as well as the wholesale distribution of motor fuels to convenience stores, independent dealers, commercial customers and distributors. Additionally, through our 31.58% membership interest in Sunoco LLC, we are the exclusive wholesale supplier of the iconic Sunoco branded motor fuel, supplying an extensive distribution network of approximately 5,000 Sunoco ‑brand ed company, third-party, and affiliate operated locations. During 2015, we completed strategic acquisitions of businesses that operate complementary motor fuel distribution and convenience retail stores (see “Acquisitions” below). As a result of these acquisitions, we now operate approximately 900 convenience stores and fuel outlets in eight states, offering merchandise, food service, motor fuel and other services as of December 31, 2015. Our retail stores operate under several brands, including our proprietary convenience store brands Stripes ® , Aloha Island Mart ® , and other retail locations acquired from Mid-Atlantic Convenience Stores, LLC (“MACS”), most of which we intend to brand APlus ® during 2016 (see “Acquisitions” below). We distributed approximately 7.6 billion gallons of motor fuel during 2015 through our convenience stores and consignment locations, contracted independent convenience store operators, and other commercial customers, including 5.2 billion gallons sold by Sunoco LLC on a consolidated basis. We believe our combined retail and wholesale business model will make it possible for us to achieve an optimal return on our investment as we integrate new or acquired stores while minimizing overhead costs. Operating Segments and Subsidiaries Prior to September 2014, we operated our business as one segment, which was primarily engaged in wholesale fuel distribution. With the addition of convenience store operations, we have added a retail operations segment. Our operations are currently conducted by the following consolidated subsidiaries: · Susser Holdings Corporation (“Susser”), a Delaware corporation, sells motor fuel and merchandise in Texas, New Mexico, and Oklahoma through Stripes branded convenience stores and transports motor fuel under GoPetro Transport LLC. · Susser Petroleum Operating Company LLC (“SPOC”), a Delaware limited liability company, distributes motor fuel to Susser’s retail and consignment locations, as well as third party customers in Texas, New Mexico, Oklahoma and Louisiana. · Susser Petroleum Property Company LLC (“PropCo”), a Delaware limited liability company, primarily owns and leases convenience store properties. · T&C Wholesale LLC and Susser Energy Services LLC, both Texas limited liability companies, distribute motor fuels, propane and lubricating oils, primarily in Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas. On April 1, 2015, T&C Wholesale LLC merged with Susser Energy Services LLC under the name Sunoco Energy Services LLC. · Southside Oil, LLC (“Southside Oil”), a Virginia limited liability company, distributes motor fuel, primarily in Virginia, Maryland, Tennessee, and Georgia.

  • Energy Transfer: Cutting Your Payout, Not Mine
    Energy Transfer: Cutting Your Payout, Not Mine Too few writers covering energy infrastructure admit to the many distribution cuts inflicted on MLP holders. Instead, they identify numerous other problems whose resolution will draw in buyers. Incentive Distribution Rights (IDRs), the payments made by MLPs to their General Partners (GP), have drawn scorn for the past couple of years. Eliminating them is fashionable and now virtually complete, with only a handful of holdouts. Other solutions include self-funding growth projects. Common practice was for MLPs to pay out most of their cash and raise equity for new projects. It worked until the new projects became big. The Shale Revolution was responsible for that. Selling non-core assets is another piece of advice – it’s rarely controversial. Few companies admit that any assets are non-core, until selling them. All this free advice is directed both publicly and privately to help draw in new investors and lift stock prices. What’s rarely mentioned are the widespread and substantial cuts in distributions that have alienated the income-seeking MLP investor base. Alerian has a chart showing AMZ“ Normalized Distributions Paid”, which shows a cumulative 25% cut 2015-17, if you do the math. Dividends on AMLP are down 34% from their high in 2014, although you won’t find this on their website. Promises have been broken, and the buyers know this. One reason others don’t dwell too much on this issue is that many distribution cuts have been via mergers and simplifications. When a lower yielding GP acquires its MLP, the MLP investors are subjected to a “backdoor” distribution cut through owning a new security with a lower yield than the one they gave up.
